Arthritis really isn't that odd an affliction to incur at a young age, I have a friend who's had arthritis since she was a teenager and by 23 it was minimaly dehibilitating.
I would suspect for an athlete that the possibility of getting arthritis at a young age is pretty fair.

Very odd, I've never seen it. But that is why The Boz retired and Ed O'Bannon never did anything in the NBA.

If thats the case, then why not throw realism out the window and have everyone pass for 5000 yards? Since their not real people, the numbers they put out shouldn't matter.

News flash: here's why, because its supposed to sim the game realistically. Oh, and btw, he overcame his arthritis after he injured his thumb. Realism indeed.

Osteodegenerative arthritis is much more common in elderly people. However, there are a variety of causes of jeuvenile arthritis which can start early in life.

How often have y'all seen arthritis in the game?
this is my first time.

Its probably an appropriate percentage of athletes...

It can affect anyone of ANY age and if you regularly have bone/joint collisions it can come on sooner.

My girlfriend has Osteoperosis (usually an old person's disease) and she's only 27

I thought I heard that the early onset of arthritis or other degenerative disease can be a direct result of steroid abuse.

I believe it was in his hand... the one he used to slap that child.

I thought this was interesting...

Scrolling through the team's injury reports throughout my league (and I'm not awesome at posting screenshots, or have a dilly of a dally how to do so), I found virtually 30 players of the Jacksonville Jaguars are stricken with Influenza.

Talk about infectious!
